'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies.

His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch. Additional generous support is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L.

This lecture will address the interface between poetry and politics in language\, using the reality of oppression in order to probe deeper into the fundamental concept of freedom. Poetry is used as a thinking and a feeling ground on which the language of oppression and lyrical language come into contact\, giving us a deeper sense of our human condition. I will argue for the importance of claiming one's inner freedom from the language of oppression that enters the language of poetry.

We use a metasurface to bend light and demonstrate synchrotron radiation produced by a sub-picosecond pulse\, which moves along a circular arc of radius 100 µm inside a nonlinear crystal. The emitted radiation\, in the THz frequency range\, results from the nonlinear polarization induced by the pulse. The generation of synchrotron radiation from a pulse revolving about a circular trajectory holds promise for the development of on-chip THz sources.\n UID:54950-13656389@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/54950 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180808T102050 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180911T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180911T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Comparative Politics Workshop DESCRIPTION:TBA UID:53064-13217924@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/53064 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Politics LOCATION:Haven Hall - Prefunction Room (5769) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180907T134500 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180911T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180911T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe. Poland\, the EU\, and Illiberal Democracy DESCRIPTION:In 2015\, Poland entered a new era. The right-wing and populist government decided to change the way Poland carries out its internal and external policies under the slogan “A Good Change” (\"Dobra zmiana\"). Since then\, the Law and Justice government has worked diligently to dismantle the constitutional system\, destroy the balance of powers\, and undermine the justice system. The “Good Change” approach has also involved shrinking the space for civil society and curtailing human rights\, especially women’s reproductive rights. Last but not least\, the government’s “Good Change” has altered Poland’s position vis-à-vis its dearest values\, and shifted its orientation in international relations\, most significantly toward the European Union. Dr. Śmiszek’s lecture will analyze these profound transformations\, as well as discuss civil society’s resistance to these changes and different institutions’ attempts to preserve the liberal democratic order in Poland. \n \nKrzysztof Śmiszek is a Polish human rights lawyer and activist. He received his Ph.D. in law from the University of Warsaw and is a lecturer at the Andrzej Frycz Modrzewski Krakow University in Poland. Dr. Śmiszek’s main areas of expertise are human rights of minorities and women\, with a special focus on LGBTI rights. He is also interested in comparative international anti-discrimination legislation and institutional protection against discrimination. He is currently the managing editor of \"The Anti-Discrimination Law Review.\" In Fall 2018\, he is the Distinguished Fellow at University of Michigan's Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to crees@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

However\, these are conflicts between two reactionary factions of the capitalist ruling elite. Trump is seeking to cultivate a fascistic movement to serve as the spearhead for the policies of the financial aristocracy. The Democrats want a more aggressive war policy in the Middle East and against Russia.\n\nThere is growing support for socialism among workers and youth\, produced by record social inequality\, continuous attacks on wages and social programs\, and unending war. The fight for socialism means a fight against the capitalist system. It requires the independent mobilization of the working class against the Democrats\, the Republicans and the social system they defend.

One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\, political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies UID:52176-12520803@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Architecture,Classical Studies,Detroit,Environment,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180907T084450 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180912T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180912T173000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Ford Day DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, September 12th\, the College of Engineering\, together with Ford Motor Company\, is pleased to host the annual Ford Day event on the UM campus.

His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations.

Although the past decade has been marked by numerous advances in therapies that aim to stabilize the onset of metabolic bone disease\, current treatment strategies leave room for substantial improvements. The studies that will be presented in this thesis focus on designing systematic treatments for two challenging clinical scenarios that require novel approaches. All studies have been approached in the context of OI using the Brtl/+ mouse model. \n\nWhile the maternal skeleton goes through significant bone loss during pregnancy and lactation\, this period of skeletal vulnerability can exacerbate an underlying metabolic bone condition like OI. In view of increasing use of bisphosphonates (BP) in premenopausal women to treat OI\, the potential risks from long-term exposure on both maternal and neonatal skeleton during pregnancy and lactation remain inconclusive. When we assessed the maternal skeletal changes during pregnancy and lactation in Brtl/+ dams\, pregnancy led to maternal trabecular gains in vertebral bone mass\, while lactation induced maternal cortical and trabecular bone loss in both vertebra and femur. When BPs were administered prior to conception\, bone mass gains due to pregnancy were amplified and lactation-induced bone loss was prevented. However\, this protective effect was more modest with BP intervention during pregnancy\, and ceased to exist in the late stages of lactation. Despite preventing lactation-induced maternal bone loss\, no negative skeletal effects of BPs on offspring were observed. These findings indicate that during this period of significant imbalance between bone resorption and formation\, BPs can help reduce the risk of maternal bone fragility in OI by inhibiting lactation-induced bone resorption without affecting bone development in their offspring. \n\nThe second half of this thesis explores clinical cases with a critically depleted bone structure\, such as severe OI. These cases pose a challenge to current antiresorptive and anabolic therapeutics since their response mechanisms target different abnormalities in the bone remodeling cycle. In this study\, rapidly growing Brtl/+ mice were treated with a combination of pamidronate (PAM) and an anabolic (SclAb) in order to attain superior bone mass and strength effects compared to monotherapy. Results from this study showed that following one cycle of combination therapy\, a single dose of PAM in combination with SclAb led to a cumulative effect on bone mass\, but each through independent means. PAM retention mechanism led to an increase in trabecular number as the dosage increased while no additional gains were observed with SclAb. Conversely\, while PAM showed no significant effect on trabecular thickness\, SclAb induced a consistent trabecular thickening across all BP dosages. Chronic effects of concurrent administration of BP and SclAb revealed that accumulating cycles conferred synergistic gains in trabecular mass and vertebral stiffness\, suggesting a distinct advantage of both therapies combined. \n\nGiven the lack of knowledge regarding the effects of BPs during reproductive periods and lack of treatment options for patients with severe OI\, this thesis provides valuable insight that can help develop patient-specific treatment plans. By understanding the changes in bone metabolism of the clinical conditions we are trying to resolve\, and by combining this knowledge with our understanding of the targeted pathways of available pharmaceuticals\, we can strategically and systematically optimize bone therapeutics so that the best clinical outcome can be achieved.\n\nDATE: Wednesday\, September 12\, 2018\nTIME: 2:00 PM\nLOCATION: Earl Lewis Room in Rackham Building\nCHAIR: Dr. Kenneth Kozloff UID:54489-13589890@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/54489 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biomedical Engineering,Education,Engineering,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Pre Med,Pre-Health LOCATION:Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.) - Earl Lewis Room CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180530T080833 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180912T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180912T160000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Introductory Techniques Seminars presented by The Michigan Center for Materials Characterization DESCRIPTION:This continuing series of seminars is designed to introduce potential users of our center to a range of the techniques that are employed with our instruments.

However\, the power of topological protection goes well beyond ordered crystal lattices. In this talk we explore how topology protects mechanical edge modes in messy\, noncrystalline\, systems. We will use disordered fiber networks and quasicrystals as our examples\, to demonstrate how topological edge floppy modes can be induced in these structures by controlling their geometry. Fiber networks are ubiquitous in nature and especially important in bio-related materials. Quasicrystals show unusual orientational order with quasiperiodic translational order. Realizing topological edge floppy modes in these noncrystalline structures may open the door to rich new physics in biological networks as well as novel designs of topological mechanical metamaterials. \n UID:53479-13386089@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/53479 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180910T100326 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180912T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180912T163000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Honors Conversion Workshop DESCRIPTION:Considering converting a course to Honors?

We describe optimization as a decision-making task (\"where should I sample next?\")\, and show how guidance from decision theory can reduce the number of function evaluations required to find approximate optima. We discuss these methods in the context of applications from the tech sector: optimizing e-commerce systems\, real-time economic markets\, mobile apps\, and hyperparameters in machine learning algorithms. Motivated by these applications\, we present a new Bayesian optimization method designed for parallel noisy function evaluations\, the parallel knowledge gradient method. This method makes use of infinitessimal perturbation analysis within a stochastic approximation framework to find a one-step average-case optimal set of points at which to evaluate the objective function. We conclude with examples of how this and other closely-related methods are used in practice\, based on the speaker's experiences working with Yelp\, Uber\, and the Bayesian Optimization startup company\, SigOpt.\n\nThis talk is based on https://arxiv.org/abs/1807.02811 and https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.04414.\n\nBio: Peter Frazier is an Associate Professor in the School of Operations Research and Information Engineering at Cornell University.

This lecture will detail the history of the emergence and transformation of this social problem. Dr. Polatel will talk about two major trends that he argues were at the core of the Armenian land question. The first is the liberalization of the Ottoman economy and the acceleration of its integration into the world economy. These developments brought about the commodification of land along with new conceptions of property rights. The second factor shaping the transformation of the Armenian land question was the rise of territorial nationalism and demographic concerns which subsequently brought about the politicization of land and land ownership. Dr. Polatel’s lecture will examine the ways these conflicting macro trends shaped the scope and the characteristics of land disputes\, and how this problem was interpreted by different actors.\n\nPhoto Caption: Harvest in the Dzvsdan [Elmalık] village of Van \n\nPhoto Credit: Originally in Keghuni (Venice\, 1905)\, p. 65\; this image was taken from Raymond H.

Soon after\, citizens began complaining about the water that flowed from their taps—but officials rebuffed them\, insisting that the water was fine. Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha\, a pediatrician at the city’s public hospital\, took state officials at their word and encouraged the parents and children in her care to continue drinking the water—after all\, it was American tap water\, blessed with the state’s seal of approval.\n\nBut a conversation at a cookout with an old friend\, leaked documents from a rogue environmental inspector\, and the activism of a concerned mother raised red flags about lead—a neurotoxin whose irreversible effects fall most heavily on children. Even as circumstantial evidence mounted and protests grew\, Dr. Mona knew that the only thing that could stop the lead poisoning was undeniable proof—and that to get it\, she’d have to enter the fight of her life. \n\nWhat the Eyes Don’t See is the inspiring story of how Dr. Mona—accompanied by an idiosyncratic team of researchers\, parents\, friends\, and community leaders—proved that Flint’s kids were exposed to lead and then fought her own government and a brutal backlash to expose that truth to the world. Paced like a scientific thriller\, this book shows how misguided austerity policies\, the withdrawal of democratic government\, and callous bureaucratic indifference placed an entire city at risk. And at the center of the story is Dr. Mona herself—an immigrant\, doctor\, scientist\, and mother whose family’s activist roots inspired her pursuit of justice. \n\nJoin Dr. Mona Hanna-Attish for a talk\, Q&A\, and book signing of What the Eyes Don't See.\n\nLiterati Bookstore will be on-hand to sell copies of the book.

So they decided in 2017 to hit the highway to swap songs\, tell stories\, and share their life experiences. They discovered that their musical roots in old blues and folk music are exactly the same. In these spontaneous shows\, audiences have enjoyed classic original compositions from the two\, and also songs from a wide spectrum of songwriters and styles— from Merle Haggard to Sam Cooke to the Youngbloods. Mutually energized and inspired by these performances\, Dave and Jimmie agreed to hit the road again in 2018 ... this time with a full band and some new stories to share.

One year later\, Puerto Rico remains in the grips of an ongoing and systematic crisis. \n\nIn June 2018\, teams from the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame traveled to Puerto Rico to film testimonies from Puerto Ricans from all walks of life. In this Teach-Out\, you will hear powerful narratives of loss and recovery\, abandonment and resilience\, failure and hope as you come to better understand Puerto Rico’s past\, present\, and future. \n\nThese individual testimonials are complemented by resources that are meant to deepen your understanding of an urgent multidimensional crisis that involves policy\, culture and history\, political economy\, environmental loss\, civil infrastructure\, public health\, and human dignity. In this teach-out\, we spotlight a number of successful organizations\, strategies and solutions that are contributing to Puerto Rico’s recovery. \n\nUnderstanding begins with listening. But “listening” is not just about hearing people’s words: it also implies taking notice of\, and acting on\, what people say. Shaped by the individual experience of everyday life\, the Listening to Puerto Rico Teach-Out invites you to hear many voices from a distressed but resilient island and discover how you can contribute to the island’s recovery. \n\nThis Teach-Out is a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. \n\nPlease join us in listening to Puerto Rico.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies UID:52176-12520804@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Architecture,Classical Studies,Detroit,Environment,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180827T085146 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180913T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180913T100000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Improving Intracortical Microelectrode Interface Utilizing Nano-Architecture DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Intracortical microelectrodes provide a means to both treat and understand diseases and injuries of the nervous systems. A major hurdle to the clinical deployment of microelectrode technologies is recording instability caused by the neuroinflammatory response and lack of integration with the native tissue. The neuroinflammatory response observed after device implantation has been linked to oxidative stress that occurs due to neurological injury and disease. It is important to improve the understanding of the neuroinflammatory and oxidative stress response in order to develop next generation electrodes and treatment strategies. A potential strategy to mitigate this response involves understanding the disparity in architecture between the in vivo environment and commercially available intracortical microelectrodes. The smooth surface structure of intracortical microelectrodes implanted within the nanometer-scale architecture of brain tissue may contribute to the foreign body response. The factors examined in Dr. Ereifej’s work and how they are utilized to inform the future design of compatible intracortical microelectrodes will be discussed.

His 2013 film Une danse des bouffons (or A jester's dance) tells the tale of a romance between two principal figures of these traditions: Dada icon Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins\, who was the model for Duchamp's final\, enigmatic artwork Étant donnés. Rife with art-historical references not only to the work of Duchamp but also to Francisco Goya\, Francis Picabia and Joseph Beuys\, among others\, Une danse des bouffons navigates a sexually charged and mesmerizing world in which fantasy and torture run amok. The gallery presentation also includes a storyboard for the film featuring Dzama’s ink and watercolor drawings\, renderings of small hybrid figures resembling children’s book illustrations. The drawings underscore the fantastical elements in a film that combines the carnivalesque with a nightmarish exploration of the surreal.\n\nLead support for Marcel Dzama: A Jester's Dance is provided by Candy and Michael Barasch. Additional generous support is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design.

The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

By refracting and distorting\, revealing and concealing\, these reflective and transparent surfaces both draw attention to the photographer’s efforts to frame the world and expose the contingent nature of reality. Highlights from the exhibition include works by Eugène Atget\, Robert Doisneau\, Elliott Erwitt\, Walker Evans\, André Kertész\, Joanne Leonard\, Danny Lyon\, and Joel Meyerowitz. By extending the limits of perception\, these witty and provocative works invite us to see [through to] new visual possibilities.\n\nLead support for See Through: Windows and Mirrors in Twentieth-Century Photography is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L.

Advance registration recommended: https://umalumni.force.com/s/lt-event?id=a1Q1a000008kSP4EAM\n\nIt was Professor Markus Nornes’ long time ambition to make a documentary on the Michigan Stadium\, or the Big House. His idea was to create a class through which students would collaboratively make a feature length documentary in the observational style and method. \n \n In the fall of 2016\, three professors (Markus Nornes\, Terri Sarris\, and Kazuhiro Soda) taught 13 students for 7 hours a week for a semester. They were granted almost complete access to every corner of the Big House ––– from the field to the locker rooms to the gigantic kitchen to the VIP rooms. To minimize their preconception and to make new discoveries\, they kept their pre-shoot research minimum and shot the film without much planning. The result is a 119-minute direct cinema style documentary\, entitled \"The Big House\". \n \nIn this lecture\, Kazuhiro Soda will explain his \"10 commandments\" of documentary filmmaking\, and will discuss how and why they took the observational approach to make \"The Big House\". \n \n \"10 Commandments\" of Observational Filmmaking\n 1 No research. \n 2 No meetings with subjects. \n 3 No scripts. \n 4 Roll the camera yourself. \n 5 Shoot as long as possible. \n 6 Cover small areas deeply. \n 7 Do not set up a theme or goal before editing. \n 8 No narration\, title\, or music. \n 9 Use long takes. \n 10 Pay for the production yourself.\n\nKazuhiro Soda is a Peabody Award-winning filmmaker. He served as a Toyota Visiting Professor at the Center for Japanese Studies\, University of Michigan in 2016-2017. His films have been screened at such events as Berlin International Film Festival\, Venice International Film Festival\, Locarno International Film Festival\, Busan International Film Festival\, among others\, winning numerous awards. His filmography includes \"Campaign\" (2007)\, \"Mental\" (2008)\, \"Peace\" (2010)\, \"Theatre 1\" (2012)\, \"Theatre 2\" (2012)\, \"Campaign 2\" (2013)\, \"Oyster Factory\" (2015)\, and \"Inland Sea\" (2018). He is also the author of nine books published in Japan. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to bkinzer@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

CubeSats typically use radio frequency (RF) communication\, where higher data rates usually belong to commercial CubeSats. Due to size\, weight\, and power (SWaP) limits and regulatory constraints\, most CubeSats transmit at <2 Watts with relatively low gain antennas. With the rapid growth in CubeSats on orbit\, RF licensing is a challenge. Laser communications (lasercom) systems have access to currently unregulated bandwidth. We demonstrate how improvement in fine pointing capability allows CubeSats in Low Earth Orbit to track a ground station or crosslink to another CubeSat\, enabling lasercom up to Gbps\, with enough power efficiency to allow use of instrument payloads. Low-cost\, compact lasercom terminals can support large constellations or swarms of CubeSat sensors collecting terabytes or petabytes of remote sensing data daily. Lasercom downlinks and crosslinks within constellations and swarms can also enable exchanges of large volumes of data for autonomous onboard processing toward intelligent system planning and scheduling. We discuss MIT's Nanosatellite Optical Downlink Experiment and its corresponding Portable Telescope for Lasercom (PorTeL)\, MIT's CubeSat Lasercom Infrared CrosslinK mission (CLICK)\, and MIT's Scheduling\, Planning and Routing Intersatellite Networking Tool (SPRINT).\n\nAbout the Speaker:\n\nKerri L.

Grounded in Latin\, Romance\, and Arabic sources\, this lecture traces the activities of criminal merchants—smugglers—who populated the thirteenth- and fourteenth- century Mediterranean\, in order to rethink the relationship between religion and economy. I approach these figures not as “enemies of all” but rather as central to the making of the late medieval Mediterranean. I argue that efforts to regulate illicit activity reflected an important juridical turn that profoundly shaped the emergence of new religious\, territorial\, and racial boundaries. \n\nHussein Fancy’s research and writing focus on the social\, cultural\, and intellectual history of religious interaction in the medieval Mediterranean. In particular\, he is interested in projects that combine the use of Latin\, Arabic\, and Romance archival sources. His first book\, The Mercenary Mediterranean\, which recently received the Verbruggen Prize for military history\, examined the service of Muslim soldiers from North Africa to the Christian kings of the Crown of Aragon in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. Far from marking the triumph of toleration\, he argued\, the alliance of Christian kings and Muslim soldiers depended on and reproduced ideas of religious difference. He is currently working on two projects. The first\, entitled The Impostor Sea: The Making of the Medieval Mediterranean\, follows the activities of criminal merchants—pirates and smugglers—in order to rethink the relationship between religion and trade. Rather than “enemies of all\,” this book argues that these figures were central to the making of new legal\, religious\, and racial boundaries in the late medieval Mediterranean. The second\, entitled The Eastern Question\, examines western views of Islam from the seventh century to the present. Professor Fancy has been the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships. Most notably\, he was a Junior Fellow of the Michigan Society of Fellows\, a Carnegie Scholar\, an ACLS Fellow\, and a Rome Prize Fellow at the American Academy in Rome. \n\nFree and open to the public. \n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

While natural products are a well-studied source of biologically active small molecules\, peptidyl factors contributing to their medicinal properties remain largely unexplored. To this end\, we have developed the PepSAVI-MS (Statistically-guided bioactive peptides prioritized via mass spectrometry) pipeline1 to identify bioactive peptide targets from complex biological samples. MS/MS techniques such as CID\, ETD\, UVPD are implemented for de novo characterization. To validate this pipeline\, we have demonstrated successful detection and identification of a known antimicrobial peptide\, cycloviolacin O2 (cyO2)\, from the botanical species Viola odorata. Additionally\, we have widened the known antimicrobial spectrum for V. odorata cyclotides\, including antibacterial activity of cyO2 against A. baumannii and novel anticancer activities for cycloviolacins by their cytotoxicity against ovarian\, breast and prostate cancer cell lines. The developed platform is highly versatile as it is adaptable to any natural product source of peptides and can test against diverse physiological targets\, including bacteria\, fungi\, viruses\, protozoans\, and cancer cells for which there is a developed bioassay. As such\, we demonstrate extension of this pipeline to fungal and bacterially-sourced AMPs through the identification of the killer toxin KP4 from Ustilago maydis2 and the bacteriocin Bac-21 from Enterococcus faecalis harboring pPD1. Bac-21 is identical in nucleotide sequence to another enterococcal bacteriocin\, AS-48\, but we have experimentally validated the protein sequence of Bac-21 for the first time. Additionally\, we begin to probe the vast array of botanical natural product sources to prioritize highly active species for downstream analysis. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nLeslie Hicks (The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill) UID:53888-13472315@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/53888 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180808T125635 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180913T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180913T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Personalizing Health Care with Economics DESCRIPTION:Experiments and clinical trials are the \"gold standard’’ for evidence in economics and medicine. It is straightforward to analyze them to determine the average impact of a treatment. However\, even if a treatment helps patients on average\, it is much more difficult to determine if it will help all patients equally. Using methods from economics\, I re-analyze data from experiments and clinical trials with the goal of personalizing recommendations. As an economist\, I take into account not only whether the recommendations are sound\, but also who will follow them.

Images of cultural or historical locations from one city are taken and sent to artists to illustrate from the other city more than eight thousand miles away. The postcards for the city of Mutare have been illustrated by Detroit artists similarly to the postcards of Detroit and Hamtramck where illustrated by artists in Mutare. The initial images where photographed by Aisha Haji-Jama (Detroit) and Abraham Mudefi (Mutare). This project is co-curated by Chido Johnson (ZCCD) and Elizabeth Muusha\, the Regional Director of the National Gallery of Zimbabwe in Mutare.\n\n \nParticipating artists from Detroit: Stephanie Beur\, Julie George\, Sabrina Nelson\, Clinton Snyder\, Dylan Spaysky\, Tim VanLaar\n\nParticipating artists from Mutare: Sharon Bilang\, Bradean Chitenduru\, Eben Gowero\, Biggie Matore\, Enock Matumbure\, Kundai Mharadze\, Brendon Muchabaiwa\, Christwish Mulunga\n\n \nThe exhibit will feature the original drawings for the postcards created\, as well as other selections from the centre’s archive in Detroit. I wish you were here will run from September 13–November 14\, 2018.\n\nThe exhibit is in conjunction with another ZCCD project called “The Jit Exchange.” This project is centered between Detroit Jit dance and Zimbabwean dances derived from their Jit Music. More information on the project and participating artists look at http://zccd.org/projects/jit/ The performance will be at the UMMA Aspe\, with musical support from SMTD students and alumni\, and in collaboration with the Center for World Performance Studies. \n\nThe fall exhibit for GalleryDAAS & the Jit Exchange Performance are part of the University of Michigan’s Museum of Art’s exhibit of modern African artists “Beyond Borders: Global Africa”(August 11–November 25\, 2018).\n\nZimbabwean Cultural Centre of Detroit (ZCCD) has been founded for and by artists living in Zimbabwe and outside its borders. The organization serves to dismantle naturally occurring as well as constructed boundaries\, both physical and otherwise with a view to promote community with the global and local in mind. Recognizing our role as cultural ambassadors we endeavor to foster a culture of research\, dialogue\, and production across geographic boundaries of Detroit\, Michigan and Zimbabwe. Our goal is to encourage strong ties between culture producers and residents in both Zimbabwe and Detroit acting as catalysts for critical artistic production as well as cultural exchange between these two diverse communities.\n\nGalleryDAAS exhibits contemporary black visual art. Collaborating with artists\, curators\, critics and art historians as well as with DAAS/U-M faculty and students\, the gallery celebrates and interrogates the creativity of artists of Africa and its diasporas\, not only in our exhibitions\, but through our artist residency program and by offering gallery-based learning opportunities for DAAS and the broader U-M community.\n\nGalleryDAAS presents two or three exhibitions a year during the fall and winter semesters.

Specifically\, we develop a bargaining model of multidefendant litigation and compare the equilibria under different offset rules—rules that adjust the plaintiff’s trial award depending on which defendants settle. We find that the most common offset rule\, the pro tanto rule\, is unfair because (1) the plaintiff recovers more than the expected value of her claim and (2) each individual defendant’s expected payout bears no relation to the harm she actually caused. In contrast\, the proportionate share rule (which a minority of states currently use) is fair. We further show that the proportionate share rule has the added benefit of eliminating the strategic aspect of settlement negotiations: Co-defendants’ settlement negotiations affect each other under the pro tanto rule but not under the proportionate share rule. We briefly discuss efficiency implications and the tractability of the two rules\, before concluding that states should switch to the proportionate share rule.\n\nSarath Sanga\, co-author UID:56217-13867066@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/56217 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,Law,seminar LOCATION:South Hall - 1020 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180928T123028 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20180913T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20180913T190000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:**CANCELLED** Microsoft Meet the Company for **BBA** Undergraduates DESCRIPTION:CANCELED\nNames and email addresses of students who rsvp'd to this Handshake event have been sent to the recruiter.\n\n-----------------\nCome learn about undergraduate business roles at Microsoft!
